Özet:

 

Purpose: The purpose of the present study was to determine the Turkish validity and reliability of the LEE Scale (short version) in patients admitted to the Dermatology Clinic, and to ensure its use in patient evaluations for dermatology and other branches.
Material and Methods: The LEE Scale (short version) had 38 items, and was developed originally in English. The scale was translated into Turkish by following the proper translation steps. The Turkish scale that was created was applied to the patients. A total of 510 people, 279 of whom were women (54.7%), and 231 men (45.3%), applying to Sivas Cumhuriyet University Hospital Dermatology Clinic were included in the study. The internal structure consistency and test-retest reliability were measured for reliability analyses. The Cronbach’s Alpha Coefficient was estimated for internal consistency. The scale was applied to 50 patients twice, at baseline and two weeks later for test-retest reliability, which was also statistically evaluated with the Pearson Correlation Test. The Exploratory Factor Analysis was performed to evaluate the construct validity of the scale. The significance level was taken as p<0.05.
Results: The ages of the patients included in the study ranged between 18 and 72, and the mean age was 28.2±9.6. The Cronbach-Alpha Coefficient was found to be 0.915 in the internal structure consistency measurement. The correlation coefficient was calculated as r=0.868 in test-retest reliability. The total LEE scale (short version) score was a mean ± SD of 59.6 ± 14.2.
Conclusion: It was concluded in the present study that the LEE Scale (short version) is a measurement tool that can be used in a reliable and valid manner for the evaluation of emotional expressions of individuals who have dermatological diseases.
